A REAR END NOISE H. W. 8, writes: There is a crunching noise which seems to come from both ends of the rear axle of my car and which sounds as if the wheel spokes or rims were loose. I have tightened up the wheels but the noise still continues and have examined all axle parts, without finding any- thing wrong. Can this noise come from a misfit of the inner ends of the axle-shafts, where they enter If not where should you look for the cause of it? LT (Byes Answer: We believe that the axle-shafts are "floated" in the gears of the differential and we should expect no noise from them, particularly as their movement is extremely slight. Buppose you try the following: Jack up both rear wheels, set the car rumning on high gear and then apply the brakes momentarily, sufficiently to place all parts under load. If the crunching still continues, you may be sure that it {s not the wheels, but if it ceases, there will beastrong presumption that the wheels are still noisy and will have to be sent away and put into shape. A sound like this from the axle parts them- selves might mean broken or over- tightened bearings or tooth defects In some of the gears. Of course, the fastening of the wheels to the axle unit, if not just right, may lead to crunching or squeaking noises. ---- BURNED OUT THERMOSTAT COIL J. 8, B. writes: I have lately been having the following trouble with the electrical aystem of my T= car. When the engine is first started and for a few miles of running, the ammeter shows "charge," although a smaller am- perage than it used to, but very soon the current suddenly ceases and does not start again until the car has been idle for a time. Can you explain this? Answer: We believe that the generator on your car has A ther- mostat to regulate its charging rate, which acts to insert-a resist- ance into the fleld circuit, when the Eenerator becomes warmed up and thus to reduce the current sent to the battery, in order to obviate overheating it. It is probable that this resistance coil has burned out and that, when the generator be- comes warm and the thermostat acts, the fleld circuit is opened and the generator, of course, ceases to generate. When things cool down and the thermostat returns to its original condition, the field circuit becomes closed again and the gen. erator is ready to excite. You can readily replace the thermostat re- sistance, but before doing so, you better make sure that the connec- tions are ail secure and that the resistance of the charging circuit is not abnormally high. | | | | = THURSDAY, NOV. 16, 1022.

By LIEu C 0 R. IRWIN Ey RN RADIO DEVELOPMENT COMMON MOTOR AND Besides those of a mechanical® nature there may be electrical troubles, some requiring expert attention, others easily found and cured if you know where to look for the trouble. The most com- mon electrical faults are those caused by loose, wrong or missing connections, and dirt. Connec- tions that allow current to pass by a piece of apparatus, instead of flowin, thro it, are called "short circuits" (usually acei- dental). They are a common source { trouble. A systematic way to hunt trou, bles is as follows: 1. Make or find a circuit dia- gram, unless thoroughly familiar with the connections are positive they are right. In drawing dia- gram follow each branch of the circuit from its source (positive terminal of battery o: generator armature) completely around (through the negative terminal) HE TROUBLES.
